We are proud to announce we (5 PSA’s) completed the ‘Moonwalk’ in Edinburgh on Saturday 14th June.  From left to right in the photo is Heather Edgar (who completed the walk in 6hrs10 mins!!!) Corinne Forbes-6hrs 25mins and Janette Martin, Ada Watson and Barbara Polson-7hrs 16mins (which is great as I had Tuesday in mind!).We raised in excess of £1,000 so far, but donations are still coming in. Thank you to everyone who sponsored us.

I know some parents did the Moonwalk too, so if you have any pictures, please e-mail them to me at b.polson@culter.aberdeen.sch.uk and I will add them to the ‘blog’. (Covered up ones please!!)

Please accept my apologies as I stated wrong time and venue for the Bingo night.  It should have read

Don’t forget to raid your cupboards for groceries or roll up your sleeves and do a bit of baking.  It will be much appreciated by the Fundraising Team and also those attending Bingo.

Also, why not come along for some fun?
